Notify when idle too long "forgot to turn off" #24

Closed Jonny999999 closed 9 months ago

Jonny999999 commented 1 year ago

e.g. parked armchair with cover for days, ON state remains unnoticed

current situation

currently armchair switches from active mode (JOYSTICK, HTTP...) to IDLE mode when there is no activity for 5 minutes

potential issues

board, driver, display, sensors, usb-charger etc. use up power even in IDLE mode

battery drains completely
motor driver might bug and activate motors

ideas

measure voltage ()
timeout
- no activity for hours
- general timeout e.g. at 12h uptime

action

beep in certain intervals
blink display?
